Do you have:
(1) your own cell phone 
(2) a television in your bedroom
(3) an MP3 player (in my palm pilot)
(4) a photo printer
( ) your own phone line (I'm the one that pays the bill, does that count?)
( ) TiVo or a generic digital video recorder
(5) high-speed internet access (i.e., not dialup)
( ) a surround sound system in bedroom
(6) DVD player in bedroom (although it's not hooked up)
( ) at least a hundred DVDs 
(7) a childfree bathroom (define child-free.  We have a master bath that is supposedly ours, but that doesn't mean we don't get an occasional munchkin in there
(8) your own in-house office (aka the junk room)
(9) a pool (rinky-dink above ground one)
( ) a guest house
(10) a game room (I guess our play room would count for this - although a play room is for the kids...)
(11) a queen-size bed or larger
( ) a stocked bar (does wine in the fridge count? LOL!)
(12) a working dishwasher
(13) an icemaker
(14) a working washer and dryer (although they're getting pretty old, and will probably have to be replaced in a year or so)
( ) more than 20 pairs of shoes
( ) at least ten things from a designer store

( ) a gym membership 
(16) large exercise equipment at home (two tread mills - one manual, one electric
( ) your own set of golf clubs
( ) a pool table (I do not count the kids torn up game table as a pool table, although it has cue sticks and balls)
( ) a tennis court
( ) local access to a lake, large pond, or the sea (the lake we have "access" to is not something to write home to the wife and kids about - it's really a druggy hangout)
( ) your own pair of skis
( ) enough camping gear for a weekend trip in an isolated area. 
( ) a boat
( ) a jet ski
( ) a neighborhood committee membership 
(17) a beach house or a vacation house/cabin (we own a time share week.  I guess that counts)

(18) two or more family cars (The family mobile - aka minivan - a new Hyundai Elantra - '68 Ford Mustang)
( ) an expensive car, like a Ferrari or BMW

( ) a hammock
( ) a personal trainer
(21) good credit 
(22) expensive jewelry (my wedding set)
( ) a designer bag that required being on a waiting list to get
( ) at least $100 cash in your possession right now
(23) more than two credit cards bearing your name (not counting gas cards or debit cards)
( ) a stock portfolio (nope, but we have a really good 401K and some TSA)
(24) a passport (expired)
( ) a horse
( ) a trust fund (either for you or created by you)
( ) private medical insurance 
(25) a college degree, and no outstanding student loans (*laughs hysterically* No outstanding student loans...)

Do you:
( ) shop for non-needed items for yourself (like clothes, jewelry, electronics) at least once a week (*joins Baffy and mmmusings in the laughter*)
( ) do your regular grocery shopping at high-end or specialty stores
( ) pay someone else to clean your house, do dishes, or launder your clothes (not counting dry-cleaning)(*still laughing*)
( ) go on weekend mini-vacations (we used to before my dad got so sick - they'd keep the kids and the hubby and I would go somewhere at least twice a year) 
( ) send dinners back with every flaw
( ) wear perfume or cologne (not body spray)
(26) regularly get your hair styled or nails done in a salon (my hair is currently colored a lovely shade of red.  In order to keep that, I have to do the regular visits.)
( ) have a job but don't need the money OR
( ) stay at home with little financial sacrifice (damn!  I wish!)
( ) pay someone else to cook your meals (damn! I wish!)
(27) pay someone else to watch your children or walk your dogs (I'm a full time working mom with one not in school - what the hell else am I suppose to do with the young 'uns?)
( ) regularly pay someone else to drive you
( ) expect a gift after you fight with your partner ) (*snort*  Joking, right?)

Are you:
( ) an only child
( ) married/partnered to a wealthy person
( ) baffled/surprised when you don't get your way

Have you:
( ) been on a cruise 
(28) traveled out of the country (Canada and Mexico)
(29) met a celebrity (I knew Rich Mullins - a contemporary Christian singer from Cincinnati, OH.  I've "seen" Martin Sheen up close at a funeral, I've met Billy Sprague, another contemporary Christian singer - I'm certain there are a few others, that I'm not thinking of)
( ) been to the Caribbean
( ) been to Europe
(30) been to Hawaii
(31) been to New York (I've been to NYC once - I had a friend dying of breast cancer in a pallative care hospital in the Bronx.  I flew in, went straight to the hospital, spent 2 days there, went straight back to the airport, and flew home.  No sight-seeing, no touring, no nothing.  I've also been to upstate New York visiting a bil and family that lived there).
( ) eaten at the space needle in Seattle
( ) been to the Mall of America
( ) been on the Eiffel tower in Paris
( ) been on the Statue of Liberty in New York (see my comment on NY)
(32) moved more than three times because you wanted to (yep...hopping apts when in college...)
( ) dined with local political figures
(33) been to both the Atlantic coast and the Pacific coast (I'm on the Atlantic coast almost every summer.  I've been to the Pacific coast once - then to Hawaii twice)

Did you:
( ) go to another country for your honeymoon
(34) hire a professional photographer for your wedding or party (I am betting there's not many who don't hire a photographer) 
(35) take riding or swimming lessons as a child (It did no good - I still can't swim well)
( ) attend private school
( ) have a Sweet 16 birthday party thrown for you

You know, I have to agree with the rest of you - I don't think some of these things mean I'm spoiled.  I mean swimming lessons?  Get real.

At least I didn't hit forty.  *High fives mmmusings for tying*

The joy of having all those young men around -- to wield the mighty lawn mower! : )

Hell, the last time I used a power mower I destroyed the back yard (I was a teenager at the time) so the back yard (such as it is) is the hubby's baby.
